So ART sounds cool, but does anyone who's installed these cm 11 based ROMs really experience a noticeable difference? People have claimed their ROMs are "smooth as butter" for years, and really this phone performs very well in most cases. Curious if it makes a tangible impact at this early stage.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trouinky:
Anyone flash 12/3 over 11/28? successfully, I mean? :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] huckl3b3rry:
I've done a few app loading tests with another g3 and most apps either load at the same speed or a second or two faster. Really depends on the app and most of them fall into the initials category. I was on delvik for quite a while and I thought it was very smooth as well. That bench said, now that titanium works with art I haven't had any issues that I have been able to attribute to ART. I'll probably go back to delvik and see if I notice a difference. Others might have a different experience than I've had but I don't notice that much of an advantage.

Latest update with twrp fix: http://d-h.st/eG2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] awalbert88:
Initial loading times for apps seem roughly the same, or a little bit quicker. The difference I'm seeing is when switching between them. It's lightning fast, whereas before it seemed like there was a tiny delay. It's difficult to quantify, but ART is definitely noticeable.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] coolcapnc:
Lost network when I dirty flashed this over the link posted yesterday. Probably my own fault, but wanted to let everyone know and check if anyone else had the same issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trouinky:
This is the kind of feedback I was looking for. The 11/28 build is running so well for me I'm leery of flashing dirty. Let us know if you find a solution.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] magoo5289:
No problems with it here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] coolcapnc:
I will have to give it another shot, then.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mrocklewitz:
I also lost all service. Restored to 10.2 stable and all is better.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cjen1987:
I had that issue before.

Just try again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ssaggy:
I cant get service either? Strange
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Beejis:
Yeah I've noticed Art does switch between apps faster. Still using it now to see and feel the differences.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cjen1987:
Try:

Flash another rom like I used liquid.

Test all calling, data, ect.

Do triple wipe script.

Flash rom and gapps!

I had the same problem with the roms i'm building! Here: (http://d-h.st/users/Cjen1987/?fld_id=28992#files)

But for the most part I fixed it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ssaggy:
Do you have a link to triple wipe? Never used it before. Always have wiped system/cache/dalvik and been good?

Am I the only one experiencing some pretty awful battery life?

Running the 11/21 build with LeanKernal
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FreddyFredFred:
Have you recently downloaded a video/song that didn't work?

Or, recently added a bunch of music/video's that are syncing?

Looks to me (I'm a total noob) like one of those two.

If it's the first, you will need to find which file is corrupt by removing them.

It it's the second, your battery life will get better in a day or two.

No battery was terrible today
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xxjahasotoxx:
I tried the triple wipe still no service do I need the new bootloader? Or am I still good on md7?

Cause I noticed when service fails it says my base band is unknown.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mrocklewitz:
That's the issue I had on the mk3 modem when I flashed. Still on the md4 bootloader though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] turd_ferguson:
It seems stable enough for me. I'm getting random reboots once or so a day, but it's no worse than previous builds. The only obvious thing I noticed in the 12/3 build is that there are added battery display options under Interface->Status Bar.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ssaggy:
I too have that issue. It only seems to be on this version with the twrp fix. I'm on md4 with the mk3 radio. I'm am only flashing with latest CWM. wonder if twrp has the same no service issue? I've tried flashing to alternate ROMs and to TW then updating prl/profile. All a no go on service

Switch the updater-script with the unmodified one from the 11/28 build. Flashed and confirmed working in terms of data and phone signal.

---------- Post added at 01:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 PM ----------

Open Terminal Emulator, type "su" (no quotes), hit enter, type "setenforce 0" (again no quotes), hit enter, and then make sure to exit the program entirely so it doesn't run in the background and drain battery. This must be performed after every reboot to reset SELinux to "permissive" instead of "enforcing."

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Good to know, will definitely check it out! I am a big fan of knowing how to do some things manually before relying on an app or a "one-click" or "all-in-one" solution as well though; some people are finding this out the hard way when it comes to relying on a third-party solution to install things like CM from what I am seeing online lately. Thanks for the info!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MrDynamo:
Something can't be right here...

Also getting this while sitting a foot away from my router...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
True that, doesn't hurt to reiterate some procedures from time to time to hopefully alleviate confusion! :thumbup:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ssaggy:
Thanks for the info. I just flashed the 11/28 Everything is working great. No fc's and hangouts works great. Camera is producing stripes but am gonna try a different kernel. Appreciate it a lot. Been struggling with this a while

Edit: Flashed lk and stripes gone. Also cleared camera data and powered off pulled battery then fired up and all good! Focal even works!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MrDynamo:
Have to restore to an old backup of a different ROM to get wifi working, so I can download the 11/28 build, then restore back to the 21 to reflash the 28. Hopefully fixes the WiFi problem.

EDIT: Flashed the 11/28 build, still no wifi. Hmmmm...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ssaggy:
I have not had any WiFi issues. Do you have any other devices to make sure its not ur router?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MrDynamo:
Computer, laptop, xbox, all working fine.

I am running KT747 kernal if that could cause a problem, but I don't know if kernals can cause WiFi problems.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ssaggy:
Yes, I ran that and lost WiFi last week. Try lean. Look up imoysen on Goo. I'm using kk9.0

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FatalIll:
I just started using this, big change from 10.2 visual-wise. I have a question though.

I use a 64GB SDCard, I already know that the SELinux needs to be changed, so I got the app that changes it on boot. but I have to unmount and remount it for it to read. Is there a workaround for this, something that doesnt require that?

Also, Menu button => Settings on home screen goes to Google settings, not Phone settings, is there a way to change that?

AlsoAlso, theres no Homescreen setting to edit the Drawer? (Hide apps) and such? (yet?)

I have not tried ART.

One thing I noticed.....

Android version 4.4.1 Not sure it that was here on the unofficial or not?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mempho69:
No it wasn't. Android 4.4.1 source code was not released by google until yesterday, so this is all new and fresh.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Gargon87:
Anyone using TWRP have any issues installing the latest nightly 12-7? Tried using cm updater. It downloaded the zip file but was unable to install properly. Also do we need PA gapps (already have) for latest update to use ART? Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] inbetweenaisles:
I used CWM so I can't comment on TWRP. Can someone else verify for this individual?

Yeah, I used the PA GApps and it's running great with ART.

Yep. Although I'm using the official CM11 that was released today. Trying other kernels to see if they fix it, but haven't had any luck yet.

Is development for the unofficial builds going to continue after the release of CM's official nightlies?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MrDynamo:
I'll try it with todays nightly
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] spoonydx:
I have, but I'm not getting past the cyanogenmod boot animation with any of them. Maybe because I'm using ART? Or am I doing something else wrong? Apologies for continuing to take this thread off track.

Update: Ok KT747 booted past the animation, but it took FOREVER to finish. Then everything was FCing all over the place, and it was acting like I had wiped data, which I had not. After all that, I was still stuck with no wifi.

Update 2: Same result with BMS, although it booted much more quickly. Think I'm going to nandroid back to 10.2 stable and start again with the nightly. I'll update again if I figure anything out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nidpancho:
I know this response is usually frowned upon but: try a clean flash.

I flashed the official CM nightly with PA ODEXED GAPPS and just switched to ART with no FCing.

Also working WiFi :)

Edit: Phone number unknown after switching to ART, back to nandroid! 0_0

EDIT: I tried to restore a nandroid backup and it kept rebooting on its own and was stuck in a boot loop. 0_0 I'm on ODINing right now restoring it to a rooted MD4 build. Wish me luck...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JackieBrown:
My Wi-Fi is working. Dirty flash. I am not using ART. I am using twrp 2.6.3.1
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MrDynamo:
Well.. Did a clean flash with todays nightly with BMS kernal, and Wifi works. Me being lazy, restored my data from a backup so I could have all my apps and settings, and wifi is broke again. I guess I'm going to have to reinstall all my apps :/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BuckMulligan:
Does anyone know if this is still an issue? PowerAmp updated today and there have been many tweaks to CM, so I wonder if the planets are aligned.

Haha, reading your little panic attack kinda makes me want to hold back on flashing the nightly.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nidpancho:
I thought I was assed out on a $300 phone, man! lol

I'm going to stick to 10.2 stable until a cm11 stable build is released. I'm scared of ART now xD
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Spiritual Muffins:
lol me too. glad to hear you got it working again. I think i'm gonna wait about a month before I flash the nightlies
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Gargon87:
Thanks for the help I'll re-download and do a fresh install
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FreddyFredFred:
I clean flashed official nightly with TWRP 2.6.3.1

Wifi, GPS, LTE, 3g, MMS..... All working fine.

I still have not tested ART. And, I probably won't any time soon. lol

Only issue I am having is my phone doesn't like to reboot. It gets stuck on the shutting down part and I have to hold the power button to shut it off completely, then boot it manually. Not every time, just sometimes. Could be an issue with xposed framework too.

Once I shut it down, it boots back up fine. And, I don't reboot often, so it's not a problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] spoonydx:
Glad you finally got your phone back up!

Clean flash did it for me. I tried everything I could think of, but I could never get past the boot animation, so after yet another restore of my nandroid, I wiped everything (data, cache, dalvik) and re-flashed the nightly. Now everything works again! :D:D:D

I'm currently restoring my apps from Titanium backup, we'll see how things work once that's done. Then I'll switch back to art. Maybe ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tondre:
Just so everyone knows, APN back up and restore DOES work on 4.4. The .apk just needs to be placed in "/system/priv-app" instead of "/system/app". That will give it the proper permissions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FatalIll:
I can confirm this works, I did it just last night.

Can anyone explain switching to ART and how to do it without breaking anything? or link me to the post within the thread on it, because I cant find it.

Can I switch after I have all my apps&data restored from backup, or can I restore them after with TiBU?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MrDynamo:
What exactly is ART?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FatalIll:
http://source.android.com/devices/tech/dalvik/art.html
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] inbetweenaisles:
I think the post you're referring to is when ART would break root. I think the current build, root is still there after. I am pretty sure you can switch after you restore your apps. It'll just reboot and then go to the "Android is upgrading" screen and that's when it takes a little bit, I'd say 10 minutes? You should be good. If root gets broken, go back to dalvik and everything should be good again.

---------- Post added at 03:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:31 PM ----------

Weird, I couldn't find it in my /system/app after installing from playstore.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tondre:
No app from the play store will ever be installed there by default. It will be installed in "/data/app". You have to convert it to a system app yourself (which requires root access). Most people use titanium backup to do it, but it is very easy to do it yourself. TiBu moves it to "/system/app". It used to work there, but not since the upgrade to kitkat. It might have to do with SELinux, but I'm not sure... Regardless, it needs to be put into "/system/priv-app" now.

First official build only went up in the wee hours of 12/7/2013, so don't worry if you missed the initial news. I, too, am wondering where the thread is for official CM 11, however. Does someone have to be involved in the actual development of any given ROM to start a thread about that ROM or can anyone start one up?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] olmos.lalo:
Is it just me or is has the camera greatly improved recently? It's not as slow as it used to be. I can confirm that the Instagram recording bug is gone and video works just as it should. My phone used to restart every time I took a picture with the front-facing camera with 3rd party apps (I use camera360) and now it just works. Is this a result of using newer blobs from MK3 (stock 4.3)? Anyways, I'm satisfied! :highfive: :good:

Edit: Turns out it's just a workaround, for now it's more than suffice. http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/55307/

I can confirm that on the official CM nigihtly, root is maintained after switching to art. It did for me, anyway, your mileage may vary.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chew DZ:
Just to be clear, ART is only useful for developers right? Not regular users?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] FatalIll:
Right now it's upcoming, meaning use at your own risk. Not necessarily for developers, but not a lot of apps have been updated for kitkat/art support so chances are users wont see much difference.
